My Torana project

Hi this is my 1977 LX torana i bought unregod for $600 in 2003. It was a 4cl sunbird which had a 186 and commodore 5 speed fitted. Car had 13inch jellybean but i sold them and fitted 14inch hotwires. I have also fitted a Torana grill GTS wheel SLR mirrors dash and ashtray. After my uncle borrowed it to run in his LJ XU1 engine i fitted a 253 and surpa 5 speed. Next step is to fit a VR 304 and VR commodore lsd and to get the old girl resprayed (original white) like a SLR 5000 with full bodykit.
